Ingredients

1 1/2 cups grated Cheddar cheese
1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
salt and pepper to taste
2 medium zucchinis, thinly sliced
5 plum tomatoes, thinly sliced
1/4 cup butter
2 tablespoons finely chopped onion
3/4 cup fine bread crumbs

Directions

1 Gather all ingredients. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly butter a 9-inch square pan.
2 Combine Cheddar, Parmesan, garlic, oregano, and basil in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste; set aside.
3 Arrange 1/2 of the zucchini slices in the prepared pan. Sprinkle 1/4 of the cheese and herb mixture on top.
4 Arrange 1/2 of the tomatoes and top with another 1/4 of the cheese mixture. Repeat layers.
5 Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add onions; cook and stir until soft and translucent. Stir in bread crumbs; cook until they have absorbed the butter.
6 Sprinkle on top of casserole.
7 Cover loosely with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Remove foil and bake until the top is crusty and vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes.
8 Serve and enjoy!
